No, smelling salt wakes you up when you've just been ding like Maidana was at the bell. They use it on people who got their bells rung. That is what it is used for. Having said that I don't think anything fishy went on in his corner. There isn't a pill that would do any good going into the 12 rnd. There is no smelling salt Ariza could have used that others couldn't also have smelled if he had it on a towel. This is just a bunch of butt hurt Broner fans looking for an excuse.
A pill is going to take at least 20-30 mins to do anything. WTF would giving him anything in the 11th round do him any good.... Just reaching now.
